The Hilton Chicago's Whiskey Apricot Sour

While the Palmer House and Hilton Chicago hotels are not welcoming guests due to COVID 19 precautions, they recently shared new whiskey cocktail recipes. What’s more these libations that pair perfectly with two of their respective signature desserts.

The Hilton Chicago Whiskey Apricot Sour (shown atop), served at Kitty O’Shea’s restaurant, is a match with the hotel’s homemade carrot cake pops. The Palmer House Brownie Manhattan naturally pairs well with the property’s original chocolate fudge brownie recipe, which dates back to 1893. Here are the full drink recipes.

Whiskey Apricot Sour
2 oz. Whiskey
¼ oz. Giffard apricot liqueur
¾ oz. Lemon 
1oz. Ginger syrup
